Sade

Helen Folasade Adu CBE (born 16 January 1959), known professionally as Sade or Sade Adu, is a Nigerian‑British singer‑songwriter. She is the lead vocalist and principal songwriter of the band Sade. As one of the most commercially successful British female artists, she is widely regarded as an influential figure in contemporary music. Her achievements have been recognized with several honours, including appointment as Officer of the Order of the British Empire in the 2002 New Year Honours and promotion to Commander in the 2017 Birthday Honours. Sade was born in Ibadan, Nigeria, and moved to England at the age of four. She studied at Saint Martin’s School of Art in London and initially gained modest recognition as a fashion designer and part‑time model. In the early 1980s, she joined the band Pride, where her performances attracted industry attention. She later formed the band Sade, securing a recording contract with Epic Records in 1983. The group’s debut album, Diamond Life, released in 1984, became one of the decade’s best‑selling albums and remains the best‑selling debut by a British female vocalist. In July 1985, Sade performed at the Live Aid charity concert at Wembley Stadium. Later that year, the band released their second album, Promise. She appeared in the film Absolute Beginners in 1986. The band continued with further releases, issuing Stronger Than Pride in 1988 and Love Deluxe in 1992. Following the birth of Sade’s child in 1996, the group went on hiatus.
